HUNTER
Advanced modular robotic platform
Page last modified
April 11 2024
HUNTER is a modular remote access, magnetic adhesion crawler, designed for cost-effective inspection of large ferromagnetic structures such as storage tanks, pressure vessels, large diameter pipes and ship hulls. With a minimised need for rope access and scaffolding, reducing inspection time and potential risks associated with manual inspections.
Pros & Limitations
1
Deployed and controlled by a single operator effectively with ease
1
Quick configurations between corrosion mapping, B-scan and visual inspection
1
Multi-probe handling capability
1
Full technical support through-out the integrity management program
1
Smooth and precise movement over inspection surfaces guarantees optimal data collection
1
Data analysis achieved through Technology Design's TDScan software with internal reports generation, full cursor analysis and 8-bit data collection
0
The curvature of surface can be a limiting factor, as Hunter was designed with the inspection of large Above Ground Storage Tanks in mind
